YouTube Being Blocked in China

[Persius]

SAN FRANCISCO ? Google said Tuesday that its YouTube video sharing Web site was being blocked in China.

The company said it first noticed traffic from China had decreased dramatically late Monday. By early Tuesday, it had dropped to nearly zero, the company said.

?We don?t know the reason for the block,? a YouTube spokesman, Scott Rubin, said. ?Our government relations people are trying to resolve it.?

Sounds like a bonus

I would think the last thing you would want is a billion Chinese surfers burning your BW looking for videos of David Beckham.

China has absolutely no interest in allowing unlimited access to anything by their people.

young children in China should be busy making tennis shoes for rich Americans rather than wasting time on computer looking at videos of men getting hit in balls...
